Overrated Food Items

A lot of people say they don't like coriander but I don't mind it. For me it's rosemary that's completely disgusting.

Coriander is delicious. I use it in so many meals
Rosemary is tolerable , but it's saying something that it's only tolerable because I actually really like most herbs

Plus one for desserts. Give me some stinky cheese and an industrial sized balloon of brandy any day of the week.

A certain percentage of the population have a gene that makes it taste like soap.

Macarons are overrated. They are terrible. In fact all desserts with meringue and/or lemon in them are overrated.

I agree that macarons can be dry sugar puffs, but lemon-based desserts are the ****.

Fancy drinking chocolate.

My wife got me a box of different hot chocolates as an early Father's Day present: rocky road, golden gaytime, polar bears and unicorns for the kids etc. etc. There's like 24 of them.

Now, the problem is it ends up taking about half an hour to make by the time you faff around heating the milk, melting the chocolate, putting on all the window dressing garnishes (which of course are the only things the kids ended up touching). So you finish drinking this thing and take your mug over and now the kitchen looks like a frigging bomb hit it: saucepans, bowls, mugs, spoons...

I dunno... I'm just a boil the kettle, a few spoons of Jarrah, a dash of caramel if I'm feeling adventurous kind of bloke. As far as I'm concerned it tastes at least as good as the fancy crap that literally takes 10 times longer to make. It's just a lot of faffing for nothing.

Like when you go to a fancy milkshake place and when they dish it up, it's tiny, but has like biscuits and honeycomb and mini magnums and God knows what else to justify the exorbitant cost. Get rid of the crap and double the size of the shake, cheers.

Seafood. I hate it, but people go crazy for it. I'd rather go dumpster diving to drink bin juice like ibises than eat seafood.
